My 2016 came with Dunlop Sport Maxx RT summer tires, I knew from 8 years with my 2002 WRX that I was immediately going to have to pickup a second set.
Then I got Dunlop summer tires and they are fantastic in the summer.
I run snows on the '03 Outback and the '21 Mazda, I have a very early, 20+ mile commute to work, and live in the snow belt. So, roads are generally not plowed. They both do great on unplowed roads.
Budget for snow tires. AWD is not magic, and you generally can't use chains with AWD systems. In terms of cars, Subarus are good and reliable. I've owned two Foresters.
With snow tires on my accord I was more successful than many Subaru owners who were stuck in the ditch.
I swapped my Dunlops over to my VA, and in colder temps (dry) they feel harder/slick compared to the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3 that was on there. Not sketchy or anything, but I could feel a difference. Temps were about 30°F.
I have the same set of tires and have noticed when my driveway is wet or icy it gets a little squirrelly. I did drive in a snow storm the other day and they did pretty decent, no complaints but they do kinda suck on the ice.
My 23’ came with some cheap o’ Dunlops, I’m a little over 10k and they are worn severely unevenly. I plan on replacing them with Costco Michelin defender, or what ever their version is called.
They need to stop with those Dunlops, especially a performance variant. Fucking horrific tires
Tires not lasting. Needed to replace them at 12k miles and I’m not super hard on the car
